Weak/fragile X or Rock. Yes, they are pacifists and sensitive, but they're by no means completely weak. I hate how just because a character's sensitive and emotional, people immediately think that they're so weak that they can't fend for themselves. They aren't doormats! There's a reason X and Rock have defeated all those Mavericks/Robot Masters! (Hell and have even tied a few times with rivals like Zero and Bass.)
Emotionless/Superman Zero. Zero is a strong, cocky bastard, but he's not invincible. There's also a reason there's so many jokes of how he comes back and dies almost every game. While I hate X4 and ignore it for fan works, that's my best example of why he's not completely uncaring either. Stop acting like he's better than X because he's "SO MACHO" and "NOT A WIMP LIKE X". Or the alternative...
Angsty Zero. STOP. RIGHT NOW. HAVE YOU SEEN X4? HE DIDN'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT IRIS UNTIL SHE DIED. HE IS NOT SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG. HE'S NOT SOME "EMO, PRETTY BOY" THAT NEEDS BABYING. WHILE I DON'T DOUBT HE NEEDS THERAPY, HE DOESN'T WALLOW IN HIS OWN EMOTIONS OVER SOME THROWAWAY CHARACTER. YOU STOP THAT.
Child Axl. I'm with a lot of you folks on this. Yes, Axl is young and a little bit of a buffoon. That doesn't mean he's an incompetent kid! He's learning what it means to be a Maverick Hunter and while he's a little bloodthirsty about it, he by no means doesn't understand what that job entails.
Incompetent, trophy wife Alia/Layer. Both of these lovely Reploid ladies are intelligent, supportive, and do their jobs. Stop treating them like they're only sole purpose in life is to be sex toys/wives of X, Vile, Sigma, etc. Speaking of which...
Gold digger/wh*re Layer. STOP YOU FUCKING GROSS PRICKS. JUST BECAUSE LAYER'S OUTFIT IS PRETTY BADLY DESIGNED DOESN'T MEAN SHE'S TRYING TO 'STEAL' ZERO. (WHO, BTW, DIDN'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT IRIS UNTIL SHE DIED.) SHE HAS A CRUSH, BUT SHE DOESN'T LET IT GET IN THE WAY OF HER DUTIES. SHE CARES ABOUT ZERO OUTSIDE OF HIS LOOKS. (WHY THE FUCK WOULD SHE BE CONCERNED ABOUT ZERO'S PAST WITH SIGMA IF SHE DIDN'T CARE ABOUT HIM?) STOP TREATING HER LIKE SHE'S A HOME-WRECKING SL*T BECAUSE OF HER CRUSH AND HER OUTFIT.
